Decentralization in Practice: Institutional Challenges, Adaptive Responses, and Future Policy Directions for Social Welfare Service Delivery in Ghana should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Decentralized cryptocurrency rails let AI agents autonomously control digital wallets, securing private keys, monitoring balances, and managing multiple addresses, without requiring human or institutional authorization. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through decentralization governance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
